By focusing on ancient culture and its reception, this book integrates antiquity into our current ecocritical theory and practice to fill in a gap in our environmental debates. It aims at a re-evaluation of antiquity in the present-day environmental concerns and re-frames our modern outlook on the more-than-human world from different cultures.
